dicry made most excellent showing at

pressed as to the number of persons
along the line of march. Some have set the
number at 25,O00, others at 10000. A

One Woman's History.

A tall, fne-looking, well-dressed woman
was sitting near the fare.box in Broad
way street-car as l entered it, writes
Denver (CoI.) correspondent to the Utica
IN. VI Observer. She had a high fore
head, dark brown hair, black eyes and
remarkably intelligent features. friend
sat beside her, and to him she talked
pleasantly. Her tones were low and her
English was of the purest. She was ap-
parently about forty years of age, and
my attention was first attracted TO her
by the fact that she had overpaid her
fare, putting in dime for a nickel.
1 made this even by giving her my fare
instead of putting it in the box. As she
left the car / learned she was a woman
with history, and that she was none
other that ex-senator Tabor's first wife
the woman who made his big strike for
him by taking boerders and keeping store
which supplied the feed for the prospec-
tors who struck the Little Pittsburgh
mine. This was the woman from whom
Tabor got his divorce, and il was this
woman he left 70 marry the present Mrs.
Tabor, whom he first welded at ST. Louis.
Afterward another marriage ceremony
was solemnized at Washington She does
not look like disappointed woman, and
she is by no means one of the fair sex. i
don't think she would have disgraced her
husband at Washington, and find that
here at Denver her standing is very good.
She lie ia good circumstances, the prop
erty which Tabor gave her having in
creased in value. She is worth at least
100000 to-day and she lately sold six
teen lots out of piece of forty which
Tabor gave her for 100000. She has left
twenty four lots and a house upon them
that cost {45 200, and she still owns the
La yeta property. This last consists OF
fourteen three-story houses, built in the
best manner and forming good renting
property, worth about $2O0,o00

IT will be an odd spectacle in the Dub

ing of n mayor for printing the news in a

of the national league Sunday in holding
300 branch meetings in the proclaimed

Mn. CLAUS SrREcKELs, the great sugar
retlner, is reported to be contemplating
the experiment of growing beetroot un-
gar in this country in one of the central
western states II ia claimed that the eli
mate is similar to that in Germany and
Austria, where boot-root cultivation is a
most important iEdustry. As is we'll
known, tho cultivation of beet sugar has
been very profitable in those and other
European countrie-, whore high bounties
have been paid by the governments. If
1T is true as reported that such expert
ments are contemplated, the outcome of
them will be closely watched. Whether
under present conditions of low sugar
prices it Is possible to successfully make
this suga IN this country is an interest
ing question, IN 1886 the total consump-
tion Jf sugar of al kinds in the United
States was 1,3S9,l25 tons, OF which only
one-tenth was produced in this country.
Tux London workingmen are clamor-
ing against the sugar bountios, and Il
meeting of 10000 persons was held there
TO denouuce them yesterday. As these
bounties are imposed by the nations of
continental Europe, the British working
man is powerless TO help himself, except
by calling for retaliation. France, Ger
many, Russia aud other countries by pay
ing these bounties on the export of beet
sugar have stimulated the growth of thEt
product from 20 per cent. to 55 per cent
OF the worlds production. OF course,
this enormous aud artificial stimulation
has closed the British retineries AMI great
ly damaged the countries which produce
sugar from the cane, except in the case
of the Hawaiian islands, which have a
great advantage in the free admission of
their products to our ports, But, in the
mean time, the European powers are nat
without difficulties. None OF them can
afford to pay millions annually to pay for
other peoples sugar, but none of them
dare to reduce the tax, for fear of rous,
ing tie opposition of those engaged in
raising the beets and retaisg.
